On day 16, Patricia and I woke up early to go see Cardiff Castle. We got distracted on the way by a market, but decided to return there on the way. The castle is used a lot in filming Doctor Who, so that’s why I wanted to see it.
The next pictures are all from the castle.

Today was another early morning. Patricia and I had a 9:15 train to Cardiff to catch. We made it this time though, which plenty of time to spare! We got some food at EAT, a very tasty food place. I had a piece of fudge because I don’t eat sandwiches.
The train was a pretty relaxing ride. The coach was mostly empty, so I slept pretty good. I sleep better in trains that I do in planes!
We got to Cardiff a bit before noon and couldn’t check in to our hotel until 2. We decided to go get lunch first at this little pub that was right outside the station and right across the road from our hotel. I ended up getting ham, eggs, and chips for like £4! It was really good too.
We had tickets for the Doctor Who Experience between 1 and 2, so we decided to try our luch and see if we could check in early. It worked in Paris! We got into our hotel and they did have a room ready, so we were about to check in around 12:30. We’re on the smoking floor, but the room doesn’t smell bad, so no complaints.
We then began the mile and a half walk to the Doctor Who Experience. There were a lot of signs, but none pointing toward DWE, though. We ended up following signs to Cardiff Bay until we came across our first pointer telling us we were going the right way.

Patrica over at Allons-y and I got together a few nights ago to start planning. We met at 5:30, ate baked potatoes, then realized soon that our phones wouldn’t get us enough info at the speed we wanted it, so we relocated to Hastings with our laptops.

Well guys, 90 days to go. It’s getting so close! After fighting with what to blog about, I have finally made a list of the rest of my ideas until leaving. This one will be the top 9 (for 90 days left) touristy things I am looking forward to doing. This list was hard to come up with because some of the most exciting things I will be doing aren’t very touristy, like Highclere and Cardiff. I don’t feel like those would be on “Top 100 Things to do in London” lists.
In no particular order, I give you
